Mouse Creek Falls
Follow Big Creek Trail for a four-mile round trip to Mouse Creek Falls. The streamside walk leads to a creekside viewpoint, making this a focused waterfall outing.
Why go
Mouse Creek Falls is reached by a roughly four-mile round trip on Big Creek Trail. The waterfall joins Big Creek near a resting spot, and the streamside walk gives this outing more than a single viewpoint. Set aside time for the creekside hike rather than treating the falls as a brief roadside stop.
What to look for
A scenic 41-foot (12.5 m) waterfall that cascades into Big Creek.
Useful to know
Begin on Big Creek Trail; walk about four miles round trip to the falls.
Check current NPS trail conditions before setting out.
